Canoeing: Event #2!

Who's up for some canoeing?!

The plan is to leave early Saturday morning and canoe down the Mississippi along a path that Mr. Newhouse has taken many grad classes before. Then afterwards we'll have a picnic lunch!

Our two options for dates are Oct 5th and Oct 19th.

Let me know which one works better for you.

  1. I can't do the 5th, but if we do the 19th, I'm definitely coming :)

  3. Andrew,
    This is a wonderful website! I'll do what I can to direct your classmates to it and get involved.

    ... Maybe you only have three comments about canoeing because the other classmates are a little "afraid" of going canoeing? :-)

  7. Not sure where my last comment disappeared too, but the 19th would probably work best for me too!

    724 Sibley St. NE

    1. Great! Thanks for finding out Tim! Looks like it's a little over an hour from me according to google maps. Is there anyone else out there that lives west of the cities that I could maybe get a ride with?

  10. If any of you have canoes/paddles/lifejackets/stuff of that nature could you let me or Mr. Newhouse know so we can plan accordingly
